It looks like all issues have been resolved. So are we ready to pick the next AR as RC?

I am still working through netconf/bgpcep, plus the bump to MSI projects. I'll keep you posted.

Robert

Hello Daniel,

    The major outstanding item are the MD-SAL regressions detected in ovsdb
    (and same thing is biting netconf) and bgpcep, tracked as MDSAL-731 and
    MDSAL-735 respectivelly.


Another day has passed :) so i guess we have to wait until these two are fixed to pick a RC?

Yes, unfortunately and I am still struggling with the fix, it turns out to be more complicated than expected, but I am converging on a solution.

The tracker issue for the removal is https://jira.opendaylight.org/browse/NETCONF-837 and the plan of action is as follows:
1. Phosphorus SR2, due out 2022-01-27, will issue a single (mild) warning on startup. We will continue to install the implementation as part of the 'odl-restconf' feature.
2. 2022.03 Sulfur, due out 2022-03-17, will not install the old implementation by default. Users will be required to explicitly install the 'odl-restconf-nb-bierman02' feature. The warning introduced in step 1. will be updated to warn about the fact the feature is no longer supported and scheduled for removal in the next major release.
3. Old implementation will be removed from the netconf git repository's master branch as soon as the 3.0.x stability branch for Sulfur is created -- i.e. March/April 2022.
4. 2022.09 Chlorine, due out in September 2022, will not include the old implementation.
Unless serious objections to this are raised by 2022-01-10 we will execute it exactly as outlined above.

No objections received up until now (~2 months after the dealine), this is the official plan of action.

Regards,
Robert

Hello TSC and all
Please let me know if you have any feedback on this proposal
https://wiki.opendaylight.org/display/ODL/Release+Schedule+for+Chlorine <https://wiki.opendaylight.org/display/ODL/Release+Schedule+for+Chlorine>

Ah, this is nice, but could you adjust the first column to contain links to Release Process requirements? that will make it easier for people unfamiliar with it to understand what means what.

From a quick glance it looks okay, except for the minor detail of me not attending the TSC call for the Middle Checkpoint :)

Robert

 From MRI perspective, we are ... 5? ... months behind the
schedule. The
good news is that MDSAL-696, which was blocking yangtools-8 -> mdsal-9
integration is done and dusted.
Next steps are to integrate with:
- controller-5 (done unless maven-verify finds something)
- aaa-0.15 (should be a breeze)
- netconf-3 (not trivial, but the pieces should be mostly there)
- bgpcep-0.17 (not sure, if we pass this we should be okay overall)
As it stands, I expect the MRI projects to be ready to integrate on
Friday the 11th, with bgpcep-0.17 integration gating yangtools-8
release.
great news, so sounds like we can still move forward with Sulfur code freeze on 9/14 ...

so a day has passed, I am up for an update:
- there was a regression (YANGTOOLS-1407) detected in lispflow integration, that is taken care of
- https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/q/topic:sulfur-mri is started, with most of the patches in a reasonable shape
- of that, there are some prerequisites in OFP which can be merged --
and Sangwook already merged most of them
- there is a model-vs-code impedance in OFP, I will looking into that tomorrow -- either the code needs to be adjusted or the model, both are quite easy to do
- there is the same problem in lispflowmapping, I think I know the answer, but fired an email at Lori to confirm
- both netconf and bgpcep builds are passing to ~50% mark

The major outstanding item are the MD-SAL regressions detected in ovsdb (and same thing is biting netconf) and bgpcep, tracked as MDSAL-731 and MDSAL-735 respectivelly.

I believe they are manifestations on of a problem with the new RuntimeType code -- and seem to have a good idea as to what needs to be done. I am currently working on a prototype. In terms of progress, it needs a bit of work for a test drive, but so far the code challenges are asking all the right questions, AFAICT.

If all goes well, I should have a fix ready tomorrow, but I won't know until it's complete enough to face testing.

Regards,
Robert
